The ling is ass. It's just. Ass. Butts. It isn't scary. Whap it and cuff it, toss it in solitary and smack its horribly deformed ass. Now they can tear through walls. Nice.
Forming armblades and flesh riot shields as ling now break cuffs and straitjackets.
Changing into a lesser form now uncuffs you
You can use an armblade is a crowbar, to do crowbar based activities.
The armblade can be used to slice and dice through non-reinforced walls and girders.
Changed the spawning mechanics of hivebots and expanded their roster with three new types, Bomber, Guardian and Harvester.
Tweaked the slime infestation event to be a bit more colorful and spawn a couple more slimes than currently.
Made it so infestation events no longer trigger outside the station at shuttle docks,, inside xenobiology cells, substations, at centcomm or outside etc.
Fixed the prison break event from not working correctly with virology, added a chance for it to happen at the bridge.
Fixed some announcements missing their custom titles. Particularly those used by random events. Tweaked their font and size.
Ice now melts at 25C. Other methods to fix the ice-instantly-melting issue didn't end so well ( #6617 et al.) and this seems to be how most baycode implementations handle the problem. If someone has a better solution, please, suggest, and I'll nuke this into the floor. Fixes#6119.
Soda cans (incl. water bottles) can now be re-filled after bursting open from shaking. This also fixes a crash related to putting these cans into chem machines and the like. Fixes#6499.
Robots and silicons can no longer be force-fed. Fixes#5016.
Custom output food from cooking appliances now fits inside storage containers. Fixes#4106.
Custom output food from the oven now causes a 'ding' as with normal cooking. Fixes#3904.
Batter now requires proximity to be applied. Fixes#5724.
Lasagne and doner kebab contents buffed to match the ingredients used in their creation. Fixes#6195.
Adds more of the Medical and Science uniform sprites. Still have stuff to do. My understanding of code is pretty limited so if anyone knows how to do any of the things I'm trying to do, please comment and tell me how. Otherwise, I'll keep trying to get them working. Also please if any merciful coder feels like looking over any changes out of the kindness of their heart while I'm working on this, please point out anything that might be broken or wrong.
Asymmetrical accessories can now be flipped! This is done through the attack_self proc (i.e., activating it in your active hand), or a right-click menu if the item already has an attack_self behaviour.
This affects:

All medals
All badges
Armbands
Holsters
Machete Holster
Scarves
TCFL ribbons
Shoulder capes
Sleeve patches
Bandoliers
Political pins
Machine overloads are now no longer a joke. The strength of APC machine overloads is now reduced by roughly 2/3rds. As you can see by the below graph, this change is very much needed.
image
X axis is the APC's power cell charge.
Y axis is the strength of the explosion.
Purple line is the strength of the explosion in its current state. As you can see above, it caps out very easily and super fast: Basically 4 AA batteries can destroy nearly everything.
Red line is the new strength of the explosion in this PR. It's much more reasonable and caps out at APCs with upgrades.
That purple dotted line down the middle is the cell capacity of a normal APC.
First, the bugfixes:
Ovens, fryers, and similar devices that "require preheat" now actually require preheat before cooking.
Oven trays no longer duplicate messages when inserted.
Oven/fryer temperature efficiency now correctly plays a role in time-to-cook.
Ovens and fryers now draw the correct amount of power.
Upgrading an oven or fryer's scanner module no longer reduces its heat output.
While not exactly a bug, removed an unneeded proc here and there as well as replaced most initial vars with initial() counterparts
Now, the tweaks - I tried to keep these light, since I was really just here to fix bugs and get the existing functionality working. However, compared to the status quo of cooking, actually getting the intended system working would have basically been a massive nerf; before now, cooking_power was locked at 1.4 throughout the "heating process"; now, after tweaks, you start at around 0.48 and end at 1.2.
Heating power increased and resistance reduced so that both machines should preheat in about ten minutes, as opposed to 30-60.
In addition, once they are usable, ovens and fryers will start at 40% efficiency, rather than climbing from 0% after the initial time-lock.
Efficiency is now based on a linear scale of temperature to optimal temperature. This is mostly because it was the simplest way to implement the starting efficiency once preheating is finished.
Upgrading oven/fryer components is now much more rewarding. I may have overdone the numbers a bit, but on the other hand - there should probably be some reward for bothering to upgrade the stove of all things.
The other conclusion I came to (but didn't implement) was the thought that one time-lock should go; either efficiency starts at 0% but you can cook from the beginning, or you have to wait for the preheat cycle and then there's no efficiency to worry about. Obviously, I prefer the former.
Zeng-Hu xenobiology outfits didn't inherit properly from normal station xenobiologists, meaning they spawned with standard, non-science headsets and no labcoats. This PR fixes that.
Closes#7111
Job age requirements now take into account alt titles. Alt titles are automatically limited to only ones a character is old enough for.
The latejoin screen now shows what alt-title you have selected.
The occupation preferences screen now functions differently if only one alt-title is available, or if the base job is not available.
Tidies up the job age requirement system.

tweak: "You can finally move through medical laptops. They're no longer impenetrable, indestructable anchors."
imageadd: "Updates sprites of medical laptops and guest pass terminals."
Adds autoinhaler and autoinjector to autolathe.
Gives autoinhaler and autoinjector material values (i'm open to suggestions to tweak 'em)
This allows medical to come to cargo to print more of these and hand them out to crew. Good stuff.
If anyone has any other ideas to add more (reasonable!) stuff to autolathes, you know where to contact me.
Made it so clicking a surgery tray opens its inventory, use click/drag instead to pick the tray up.
Also made the tray spill if you hit someone or throw it.
Engine room tweaked so it uses gas coolers and stuff
Shields set up in the Bridge substation
Psychology moved slightly and made bigger to account for the treatment machines
Chemistry, toxins, xenobotany, other areas like that all given borosilicate windows
Representative office put near the bridge, detective's office and forensics moved around a little bit
Red dock and the transfer shuttle changed to match the transfer shuttle on the Aurora map
Exodus CentComm changed to match Aurora CentComm better
Supermatter has a catchment zone for when the crystal is ejected to prevent it from looping around and exploding against security or the holodeck
Toxins test range made more resilient
Countless cruel and unnecessary blobstart markers removed. I thought it was a bit unkind that a blob could appear literally in the middle of a department, or underneath someone's feet while they're taking a shit in the bathroom. People go there to AFK.
Windows around the representative's shuttle dock electrified, the cockpit for the shuttle has the same access requirement as their airlock on CentComm. Accounting for it being in a less secure spot on the Exodus, to try and prevent wanton theft of their shuttle "just because". It's still possible, but it can't be done by just anybody.
Added a ninja frequency to radios which ninjas spawn with to collaborate.
Two ninjas now spawn instead of just one.
Gave the ninja better spawning gear, a syndicate uniform, a belt with some tools and a pAI card.
The ninja suit now has new lights, and its shoes are now magboots.
Added a doorhack RIG module. Functions the same as the normal doorhack, but the user can move around after initiating the hack, as well as hack multiple airlocks at once.
Added new advanced combat belt, can hold various gear that a ninja would usually come across.
Gave the ninja teleporter a 5 second cooldown between uses.
Buffed the ninja's RIG armour values slightly. Still requires feedback, if ninjas die too quickly, it will be buffed more.
Added an additional toolbox, chair, suitcooling unit and ninja spawn point to the ninja shuttle on the centcomm level.
Gave the ninja a new uniform + gloves.
Tweaked Emergency Power Generator to give 2500 energy, but take 5 minutes to recharge. In the past, they took 24 seconds to recharge and gave 1500 energy, which made all other sources of energy regeneration useless.
-fixes idris uniforms being invisible
-fixes a typo in the skrell star projector
-fixes the skrell plant missing from xenobotany storages
-tweaks the starry projections to last less time
